HELLEBORUS SEEDS

The Helleborus genus, commonly known as Hellebore or Lenten Rose, is a captivating member of the Ranunculaceae family. These herbaceous perennials are celebrated for their elegant, nodding flowers in shades of white, pink, purple, green, and even near-black, which bloom from late winter to early spring. Helleborus adds a touch of early-season beauty to shaded borders, woodland gardens, and cottage-style plantings.

Native to Europe and Asia, Helleborus thrives in well-drained, humus-rich soils and prefers partially shaded locations. These hardy plants are drought-tolerant once established, making them ideal for low-maintenance gardens. Popular species such as Helleborus orientalis and hybrids like Helleborus x hybridus are particularly admired for their long-lasting blooms and striking foliage.

The Helleborus genus combines beauty, resilience, and seasonal interest, making it a perfect choice for gardeners seeking colourful, low-maintenance plants that brighten winter and early spring landscapes.
